Space in the Playground!
Year 5 have been learning about Earth and the Solar System this term. They were given a task to create chalk pictures of the planets, making sure they were drawn to scale and placed in their position in relation to the Sun. The childlren have learnt a mnemonic to help them remember this information: My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming (planets). Mars, Venus, Earth, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The class demonstrated great team work (look how many children helped to make the Sun) and also had great fun. The results were very impressive. Well done Year 5! Mrs Blomeley
